Press Release

Date: Oct. 22, 2024
Location: Washington, D.C.
Issues: Foreign Affairs

“It has now been more than one year since Mr. Collins was injured in a targeted Israeli strike while on assignment for AFP. To date, Mr. Collins has received no explanation for the attack, and there have been no steps toward accountability. Given the inaction of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government, the United States must open an independent investigation into this incident.

“There is no reason to believe the Netanyahu government will take any action. The U.S. government must therefore act to ensure accountability for attacks on its citizens.

“Mr. Collins deserves better from his own government.”
